Title: Programming/Running Issues

Description: I have built a WiFi command station but have so far been unable to successfully read or write DCC addresses whilst using both the online throttle and the Engine Driver app. When trying to read an address, the loco(s) jerk/'pulse' along the programming track before returning <-1> or 'Action Failed.' I'm aware there is something regarding this in the FAQs but I have been unable to fathom it as I am somewhat of a novice - I built my command station following YouTube instructional videos. It is made up of a Elegoo Arduino Mega, Deek Robot Motor Shield and Makerfabs WiFi board. I have no issues connecting via WiFi (after flashing the board), but can't read or write addresses and locate and control locos. Many thanks in advance. Kind regards Jonathan
